I'm starting a general thread called /DUG/ for people who drive for these gig apps or order food from them. share your experiences as a driver or share your tips and tricks for getting free food as either drivers or customers.


>how long do you drive?
>how is the pay in your area and is it even worth is once you factor in car repair costs and gas?
>what are your experiences like with other gig drivers while waiting for food?
>whats your least favorite restaurant or type of restaurant to pick up food from?
>what do you do you do to pass the time in-between orders?
>are you ashamed to be a /foodcuck/ or do you not give a shit?
>do you ever steal food either by nibbling on customers food or canceling orders or by other means
>have you ever gotten sex or been in a situation where it was possible?
>are police ever a problem for you and how much of your pay do they steal from you with bullshit tickets?

I did it during the pandemic which was great, good reason to go outside and legally I got to drive to anywhere I wanted to while others were stuck at home.

TYPICALLY
>how long do you drive?
4 hour drive, once or twice a day, longer on weekends
>how is the pay in your area and is it even worth is once you factor in car repair costs and gas?
during the pandemic, $100/hr
>what are your experiences like with other gig drivers while waiting for food?
everyone is a faggot
>whats your least favorite restaurant or type of restaurant to pick up food from?
the ones where the food isn't ready and they take 30 minutes to finish it
>what do you do you do to pass the time in-between orders?
shitpost
>are you ashamed to be a /foodcuck/ or do you not give a shit?
I would never do it now
>do you ever steal food either by nibbling on customers food or canceling orders or by other means
You dont have to, eventually someone will do something so fucking dumb or confusing you'll end up with the food.
>have you ever gotten sex or been in a situation where it was possible?
Never one time
>are police ever a problem for you and how much of your pay do they steal from you with bullshit tickets?
No lol the fuck?

like 4-5 hours

pretty good where i am near wealthy subburbs but some days are slow as fuck

>what are your experiences like with other gig drivers while waiting for food?

really annoying sengals and pajeets that shove their phone in the cashiers face and cant speak english

>whats your least favorite restaurant or type of restaurant to pick up food from?


probably asian restaurants because they treat everyone like their black and make you jump through all kinds of hoops to prove you wont steal food

>what do you do you do to pass the time in-between orders?

play emulated shit on my phone, currently playing armored core 2 with my dualshock 4. also watching geopolitics vids lol

>are you ashamed to be a /foodcuck/ or do you not give a shit?

no im autistic and i've been treated like shit anyway, this jobs suites me perfectly.

>do you ever steal food either by nibbling on customers food or canceling orders or by other means

not intentionally but i have ended up with cancelled orders, only once did i cancel an order on purpose because the customer had 0 dollar tip so fuck em lol. made the restaurant remake it.

>have you ever gotten sex or been in a situation where it was possible?

on 4 occasions, an older woman kept trying to start convo with me as i trying to leave and she said "you can come inside if you like" but she was old and kinda ugly lol. i've gotten a lot of fuck me eyes but im autistic so i dont know how to talk to girls. 2 faggots asked me to stick around to do gay for pay but 20 dollars is not in fact 20 dollars so thats not happening lmao.

>are police ever a problem for you and how much of your pay do they steal from you with bullshit tickets?

yes. police here are vampires

I ordered from Wendy's in town on a cold night, I got a couple burgers and fries, no problem. I suspect that is quicker and more direct than if Wendy's was delivering direct because a lot of people don't order directly and they'd need someone on staff to it and wouldn't make much sense.

i used to be a goodytwoshoes and never think of touching a customers food or stealing an order but with the way the world and economy are going i increasingly dont give a shit. i dont know how their internal algorithm works but i can call in a fake emergency whenever i want and get hundreds of dollars worth of fancy food. im sure they kick you off the app if you do this too many times but they also cant afford to lose drivers at this point

>> No.58172308

What the heck is fancy food and where? Inquiring minds and stuff want to know.

>>how long do you drive?
5-10 hours a day depending on how I feel, this year I'm going to step it up for funsies though
>>how is the pay in your area and is it even worth is once you factor in car repair costs and gas?
yes you just have to drive carefully and turn off your car as often as possible
>>what are your experiences like with other gig drivers while waiting for food?
I always see the same old man and he starts rambling on about random shit, it's humorous to me
>>whats your least favorite restaurant or type of restaurant to pick up food from?
the ones that have a 30+ minute wait time
>>what do you do you do to pass the time in-between orders?
tiktok, also going to get a steamdeck (sort of like PSP/Nintendo Switch if you don't game)
>>are you ashamed to be a /foodcuck/ or do you not give a shit?
No I make the same wage as various other jobs, and I don't have to deal with some asshole manager nor co-worker
>>do you ever steal food either by nibbling on customers food or canceling orders or by other means
I would never cancel an order to do that, but if the bag isn't sealed then I will grab a french fry or two if it's steaming hot
>>have you ever gotten sex or been in a situation where it was possible?
This one girl was into me but I thought she was too old for me so I turned her down.
>>are police ever a problem for you and how much of your pay do they steal from you with bullshit tickets?
Only got stopped twice while working, one was my fault because I would put on my emergency lights like a dumbass while dropping off orders, that cop let me go. Another time it was my fault as well because I had the emergency lights in the turning lane on because I couldn't find these apartments, that officer gave me a justified ticket because my sticker was over 6 months old lol. It wasn't a real ticket because all I had to do was replace my sticker.

You don't have to steal to get free food while working these apps. But fries are tempting.

I remember experiencing a weird bug on a local statewide app. Was a good barbecue plate and I paid with the app card, but as I got in the car the order completely disappeared and it said the customer had a payment issue. I enjoyed the meal and then the same exact order popped up again. I could have gone for it again but the same lady there would have thought I was a scammer lol.

>>58172313

yea if you do steal using methods like this you gotta spread it out over several restaurants with higher frequency of orders so its less obvious. if you do this to some small mom and pop place with only 2 cooks and 12 orders a day it will be obvious whats going on
